Server Clock

I know there are times where the host server time seems to be off but today the time is off 10 min. I can't remember one being that late before. I even went and double checked with 5 different Atomic clock servers to be certain.

I have no control over the server clock, so there isn't really anything I can do about that. It's not like timestamps are that critical for a forum though as long as they're mostly accurate. We still know when something was posted, and 10 minutes doesn't matter much.

I thought I would let you know. Late is never really an issue. But I do remember a few forums that ended up with their clock getting early ending up having logins fail as impossible and thread graphics not appear. I have no idea why but some versions of the PHP BB software had those problems in the past.
